t206 helm missing yellow???
Hello all!!
hope everyone had a great holiday.... I just picked up an interesting t206 from a great friend(BTW- thanx a ton  )..At first, the background and face of mr. helm looks chemically faded/ solvent or something that was possibly caused from scrapbook removal???  I was thinking this, and another good friend confirmed my suspicion, but i'm not 100% convinced... The blue background/blue color should be affected if it were chemical, but its so "blue".....and the offset yellow extending over the left border is not affected??? I am so confused and was fishing for opinions... Factory missing yellow???chemically altered?? Thanks in advance Peace Johnny v

Just for you Johnny, the Downey I was talking about. Notice it has the color missing around the red on his sleeve, but the red part is fine. Bought this because it looked neat, it has a Tolstoi back and it was $7, plus has a wet sheet transfer on the back on the front

Johnny
Thanks for posting! your card is a chemical removal.....there are a few examples like yours that sellers were trying to pass off as "missing ink"....these cards are much easier to differentiate, the colors are all" dull" and removed in a general area,the red looks slightly affected, but affected slightly, and most have that writing on them.....i'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news johnny on that
 cause there are a few of these....i think the levys have a few....i could be wrong......i'm glad u posted, cause your card is a prime example of chemical removal....if the helm were the same, the blue background after the yellow was "removed " by chemical would be at least pale or faded, but the blue is super vibrant.....thats why im confused on helm HELP

I knew it was already JV, that is why I explained why I bought it. Just showing you that a full color could remain with the damage around it. I paid $7(incl S/H) and it has a Tolstoi back, there is no bad news with that
